With production duties supplied by the unwavering ‘king of electro’ Endoflevelbaddie, ‘I See Only Red’ tells a haunting tale of waking up to a lifeless body, unable to move, speak or scream, combined with the sensation that something horrible and otherworldly is lurking! As the room turns blood red and shadow-like figures lurk in crevices, the ability to remain calm is a struggle.

Jodie says of the release: “’I See Only Red’ had been wallowing in a folder for a while, not sure of the direction we should go in with it. The song has a very personal aspect to it lyrically and had gone through a few different iterations before arriving at this final version which has the perfect level of energy and drama that we’ve been looking for.

“Endoflevelbaddie’s production is leaning more into punk territory in sound/production mentality with a healthy dose of rave still! Tracks are quickly concocted with parts recorded quickly to try to keep that raw energy alive and not get bloated with layers and layers of sounds or being over-produced to death. This song shows our continued progression into that way of working, whilst still paying homage to my spoken word background and playful nature.”

With production duties supplied by steadfast ‘king of electro’ Endoflevelbaddie, the sound of ‘Put It Down’ leans more towards punk in terms of attitude (still with a hint of rave mind you) and has been feverishly concocted in the studio to keep it fresh and not bloated with layers of over-produced sounds. Similar to her previous tracks ‘Foefetti’ and ‘Get The Shots In’, ‘Put It Down’ is decidedly light-hearted and a break from the more serious subject matter that Jodie’s explored with some of her music, like mental health and her perceptions of society.

“The song’s inspired by mine & Endoflevelbaddie’s shared disdain of people filming an entire live performance on their phone” says Jodie “I pay good money to see a live act that I adore and the last thing I want is to view it through people’s phone screens. I love being fully involved at gigs and feeling that connection between you and the artists on stage. Getting your phone out for a long period of time is poor gig etiquette… and I’m short so that doesn’t help!”

Produced by Hull’s “King of Electro” Endoflevelbaddie, the song has a real snappy and direct vibe to it due to the fact that many of the elements are played live and not quantised by a computer – in that way the spirit of the moment is truly captured with Jodie & Baddie performing together and feeding off each other’s performance.

As for the lyrics, ‘Foefetti’ is a bratty take on the Happy Birthday song. You know a true friend from a foe when you discover the only person you invite to your birthday party doesn’t turn up, lies about their whereabouts and declines your phone calls! If society doesn’t let you down, then quite possibly your mates will instead!

Jodie says of the release: “it’s focused on simple lyricism with an up-beat and slightly aggressive vibe. It’s different to other tracks I’ve written that contain more long-winded wordplay. This is a new way of experimenting with my storytelling and adding elements of other genres into my music. I strongly believe this track will ease us both into exploring new musical paths which will give listeners a taste of something different and add more life to our live performance. Also, check out the video where you see me upset and angry that no-one’s turned up, so I destroy the cakes”.
